Chapter 181 Worry.

The next morning, when Lu Xiao woke up, she vaguely remembered that she had been drinking with Admiral Clan last night. She drank too much, cried, laughed, and talked a lot. It was so embarrassing.

Rubbing her swollen forehead, Lu Xiao came out of the room and prepared to go downstairs to get some water to drink. Then she saw a tall man wearing an apron in the kitchen. Lu Xiao’s heart tightened. Just as she was about to call Ares, she suddenly remembered that Ares had gone to the front battlefield and it was impossible for him to be at home at this time.

There is only one possibility, the person in the kitchen is Admiral Crane.

After realizing this, Lu Xiao was also a little surprised. She walked over and knocked gently on the kitchen door: “Father, what are you doing?”

Admiral Clan turned his head and looked at her, with a bit of shame on his face: “I want to make you a hangover soup, but I haven’t done enough homework. I can only learn from the video, and I don’t know how it tastes.”

It can be said that this was Admiral Crane’s first time cooking.

He has no requirements for diet, and he is never picky about what he eats as long as he doesn’t have to cook.

Hearing this, Lu Xiao felt warm inside and walked over to hug Admiral Klan, who seemed a little reserved: “Thank you, father.”

Admiral Clan was hugged by her, his body suddenly stiffened, then he smiled and said, “You’re welcome, it’s my duty. Okay, okay, you go out and wait, I’ll serve it to you.”

Lu Xiao nodded: “Okay, I’ll go out and wait!”

“Go ahead.” Admiral Clan smiled and brought out the cooked hangover soup, carefully placing it in front of Lu Xiao, “Don’t go to work today, take a good rest at home for a day.”

Lu Xiao thought so too. She had not been in good shape these past two days and had no energy to go to work. She might as well take a rest at home.

“Father, don’t you need to go to the military?” Seeing that it was already this late and Admiral Clan hadn’t left yet, Lu Xiao was a little worried that he would delay his work.

“I’m taking a break today too. It’s a rare opportunity like this.”

Knowing that Admiral Clan was worried about her and stayed at home to accompany her, Lu Xiao was very touched.

“Is it delicious?” Admiral Clan was still a little nervous when he saw Lu Xiao drinking the soup he cooked.

Lu Xiao nodded: “It tastes good.”

“That’s good, that’s good.” Admiral Clan couldn’t help but feel happy when he saw that Lu Xiao was not annoying.

After drinking a bowl of soup, Lu Xiao felt that her swollen forehead due to the hangover felt much better.

After breakfast, Lu Xiao felt refreshed.

At this time, Ares also sent her a message: “I have arrived safely, don’t worry.”

After receiving it, Lu Xiao smiled and responded: “I know, take care of yourself over there, don’t worry about me, my father came to accompany me and even made soup for me^_^”

As for what kind of soup it was, she didn’t want to tell him, lest Ares think that she had become a drunkard when he was not at home.

Ares, who was far away on the front battlefield, looked at the message sent by the little female and a gentle smile appeared in his eyes. Although they were far apart, he did not feel that he and Lu Xiao were separated.

I still feel that they are together because their hearts are very close.

Without telling Aristo, Lu Xiao knew very well that a man who went to the front line battlefield would definitely not have much time for himself. It was enough to say a few words occasionally and know that both of them were fine.

They all have their own things to do. Lu Xiao was not originally a clingy person.

Ares’ sudden departure is a bit sad, but I will soon accept it.

So the next day, Lu Xiao resumed her normal work, and Admiral Cran also returned to the First Military Region.

The only thing Lu Xiao didn’t expect was that when she got off work that night, she received a voice invitation from Lu Gewei. After answering the call, she heard the voice from the other end: “Go home tonight. I have something to talk to you about.”

Lu Xiao was a little confused: “What’s the matter? Can’t mother tell you here?”

“It’s not convenient, please come back. I am your mother, how can I harm you? That’s it!” After saying this, as if she was worried that she had said too much and would give Lu Xiao a chance to completely reject her, she ended the call directly.

Lu Xiao raised her eyebrows, not understanding what Lu Gewei was doing. Anyway, Ares was not at home now, so it would be okay to meet Lu Gewei.

So Lu Xiao drove directly to Earl Lu Gewei’s Mansion.

The old housekeeper at home had a strange look on his face when he saw her come back, and Lu Xiao did not miss any of his emotional fluctuations.

“Mother is so anxious to call me back, what happened?”

The old housekeeper hesitated to speak, and after a moment of silence, he said, “Madam invited some female mistresses to her home as guests, thinking that they were paving the way for you.”

This sentence revealed a lot of information. Lu Xiao knew that there were some things that the old butler was not convenient to say directly, but this was enough.

Hearing this, he nodded: “Thank you.”

Seeing that she understood his hint, the old housekeeper smiled and said, “You are welcome.”

As she approached the main hall, Lu Xiao naturally heard laughter coming from inside. When she stepped into the main hall, the sound in the room stopped abruptly. At the same time, she also saw several females headed by Lu Gewei.

Most of them are about the same age as Lu Gewei.

When they suddenly saw her, all of them looked at her with curiosity and consideration.

“You’re back, Lu Xiao. Come and meet the aunts and uncles. They are all good friends of mother. They came to our house for a dinner today and I asked you to come back and meet them.” Lu Gewei waved at Lu Xiao enthusiastically, as if they had a very good relationship as mother and daughter.

Lu Xiao’s expression was calm, and she had no intention of playing the mother-son relationship with Lu Gewei: “My mother asked me to come back, what on earth is it?”

Hearing these words suddenly, the perfect smile on Lu Gewei’s face began to crack. She knew that this damn boy Lu Xiao would not cooperate.

But before she could speak, a female sitting on her right said, “Your mother specially invited us here for your sake. You must not let her down.”

“For my business, what business?” Lu Xiao said as she sat on the chair next to her and continued, “How come I don’t know that I have something else that I need my mother to worry about?”

Isn’t it true that you only have one househusband at home now? And I heard that he is not at home now. It would be bad for you to stay alone in the empty house, so your mother asked us to find a candidate for you!

Hearing this, Lu Xiao’s expression turned cold. She looked at Lu Gewei and asked inquiringly, “Mother asked me to come back just for this matter?”

Lu Gewei nodded: “Yes, don’t be willful. Now that Ares has become your husband and is not at home, do you want to live alone? To put it bluntly, if he dies on the battlefield, will you live like this for the rest of your life? You are a female, how can a female love only one person?”
